Speaker 2 (00:32):
I am man.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
It was a it's a crazy week. We have heat Wave,
we had Raw, we had SmackDown, we had NXT. We
had a crazy week. We have a pl this weekend,
more WWE counterprogramming. ADW might be getting their first pay
per view on Max. There's a lot of big news
going on in the world of professional wrestling, so it's
certainly an exciting time to be a pro wrestling fan

(00:55):
in the year twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
It really is. So stop complaining, y'all right that music.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
Love too, Dudes with Attitudes, Let's go the two Dudes
and the Attitudes Roofless aggressively speaking, some Less Dude is
with Brian and didn't they here they get your attention
of five starf brow candsh stalks to that and whether
it's the e or it's the two dudes with the
attitudes of bringing heat get the point ye so on

(01:22):
Time and Lackey listen to the podcast when they get
it popping.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
So with that jam packed action, Ryan, it is time
to get the party started. Let's start off with some
heat wave. Are you ready? Let's get these thumbs up
and thumbs down done with. Huh. We had six matches.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, this should be quick and painless. It was not
like the pel It was not my favorite. Yeah, it's
not my favorite the NXC has done this year.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
But you know I'm not They tried, yes, but I'm
not gonna lie. I don't think I've had an nxt
PL where I didn't do all thumbs up. Well, it's
about to change today, y'all. Yeah, it is about to change.
All right, Let's go, what's the first match you're gonna
throw up there? All right? The low they we got
We got one ash by Elegance defeating j C. Jane

(02:20):
and Masha Slimovich to win the TNA Women's Knockouts title.
Thumbs up, thumbs down.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
I'm gonna go thumbs up for the result, but I'm
gonna go thumbs down for the match. I feel like
the result Ashby Elegance winning was I guess, the right decision.
I think it should have happened at Bound for Gorry,
which is TNA's biggest show of the year. They get
their title back finally on somebody on a TNA show,

(02:49):
Like I think that's what made them of sense to me.
So this felt completely random, This felt out of the blue.
But I'm very happy to see Dana Brook what she
was formerly known as n WWE, getting the success that
she rightfully deserves. She's killing it as Ashby Elegance in TNA.
She is thriving right now in TNA. You know, I

(03:11):
remember when she was released, people were like, Oh, she's
it's no big loss, She's not nobody's going to miss her.
And now here she is killing it and what people
could say is the second biggest promotion in the world
right now in TNA. So happy for her, But the
match left a lot to be desired. In my opinion,
it was just I don't understand why they had the
belt on JC Jane, just for her to lose it

(03:32):
not even a month after she got it. I don't
get why they did that. The Masha Slaimovich really added
nothing to it. But other than that, I mean happy
for Dana Brook, but the match itself, I go very
very big time thumbs down.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah, I'm doing thumbs down as well. Want wah wah wah,
remember too. I didn't say it, but thumbs down means
it was a C or worse, thumbs up as a
beer better, So it does mean you hate the match,
just didn't hit that above average. But I didn't like
the results. I mean, good for ash By ele Agance.
I know she's killing it on TNA, but yeah, like
you said, I feel like exactly. I feel like they

(04:10):
gave JCJ and the title because out of nowhere, and
then they were like, well, let's just double title her
up so it doesn't feel completely pointless. And I feel
like she's about to lose that Women's Championship too, coming
right up. I just feel like she's pretty much going
to be done right now, so they just might as
well give it. But I hate when titles change hands
in a non one on one affair. I feel like,
if you she won it, an NXT superstar won the

(04:30):
TNA title, make it feel important. You didn't even need
Masha in this she already was a champion. Kick her
out of it. Just have you know, act by el
against win and move on with it. But it is
what it is. She won it, tna Is, you know,
has their belt again and the life will be forward,
I guess. But the imagine itself was kind of sloppy
in my opinion too. I thought it was kind of meh,

(04:51):
So yeah, for sure, all right, woo. We had one
Mercedes Oh it's just kidding, Mercedes money. We had one
Blake men Row defeating Jordan's Grace thumbs up, thumbs down.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Oh man, very very fringe thumbs down.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
And again I didn't hate this match like I hated
the bill to this match, but I actually thought the
match was far superior to the build. But I just
it just didn't do it for me. And I again,
I just I don't know what it is about Blake
Monroe right now. I don't know if she is stuck

(05:31):
in she's trying to be Mariah May, but she's like
not trying to be Mariah May. And I could tell
in the match she was like holding herself back from
doing a lot of the same stuff that Mariah.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
May used to do.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
You know, But she also still tries to be Mariah
may By, like hold, you know, putting her finger in
her mouth and doing the provocative things like that. So
I feel like she's trying to like shut herself with
that character, but she also has yet to find her
true self as Blake Monroe, and I think that show
showed a lot in this match. And then Jordan Grace,

(06:04):
I mean, you know, she takes she took yet another loss.
You know, I like Jordan Grace, but she just continues
to wrack up L after L after L on the
n X to You roster. But this match just really
didn't do it for me. But you know, I was
excited to see Blake Monroe get the win, and I'm
curious to see what happens next. So I'm gonna go

(06:24):
fringe thumbs down.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm gonna do a thumbs down thumbs up, actually sorry,
thumbs up, fringe thumbs up. The match started very slow.
It felt like they were kind of like telegraphing their
moves where I was like, oh, hold on, okay, yeah,
oh you got my move. But then once they like clicked,
it ended well. In the second half was really really good.
So that's why give it her fringe thumbs up? Blake
Monroe should have won, even though Jordan Grace has taken outs.

(06:47):
But I'm very confused because I know TNA and would
Be are different. But I just feel like Jordan Grace
and TNA was a vibe man, she was it. Then
she kind of came over here and there when she
was still a TEENA superstar and she was good. Yeah,
those were good her in ring a bit she felt
and then she became an NXC superstar, and I really
feel like she has not Like if you had not

(07:09):
known her in TNA, you would be wondering why she's
getting any type of a push. It just really she
seems off. And Blake Monroe, I get that, but I
think she's off because Jordan Grace is off. I just
and I know that's me pointing fingers and I shouldn't
do that because I do like Jordan Grace. I just
don't know what the hell is happening. Maybe they just
not All people have chemistry, even the greatest superstars, but

(07:33):
greatest they rush they just didn't work right. Sometimes it
just doesn't work. This is I think one of those situations.
But I do give it a fringe thumbs up because
for one, Blake Monroe is in the match, so.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, all right. The tag team match, we had the
Dark State I don't know who was who, and they
defeated Hank and Take finally for the Tag Team Championships.
Thumbs up or thumbs down.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, this match of thumb.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
This is probably gonna be the one of the few
matches I give a thumbs up to. I thought this
match was really really good, you know. I think we
got to see just how good Hank and Tank are
as a tag team.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
I feel like that.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Really hasn't been showcased all that much since they won
the tag team titles off of Phraxium, but we find
I feel like we finally got to see just how
good they can be against Dark State, and I think
Dark State is starting to come into their own I
like the fact that Dark State got to win. They
needed it, especially if they're going to continue going after
people and tormenting people on the NXC roster.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
It's hard to do that when you don't have gold.
So I think it was the right decision putting the
titles on them, and we had to see a title
change on a WWE p L E the same day.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
As Forbidden Door. So yeah, I think this was the
right decision. So but I enjoyed this match. It was
it was a fun tag team match.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
I agree with you on all of that. I think
I say thumbs down, though, sorry I do say thumbs down.
I don't know why. I just didn't feel like they
were meshing well. I like I said, I feel like
this whole heat wave was off. I do have some
thumbs up, but even my thumbs up are very fringe.
I just the whole night just it didn't feel like
a real pl It felt like an NXT episode with
title matches. But it was fun. Hank and Tank needed

(09:24):
to lose. They were literally like pretending to be SNL
characters earlier in the month. There's really no point for
them to be Tag Team champions anymore. But Dark State
winning was good. We'll get into NXT about what the
hell they're doing now, but actually I think we gotta
talk about them. We didn't even go over that Ryan,
But yeah, but they just kind of like now are
just going after the champions again. Really weird booking for them.

(09:44):
Hopefully they find their place. Just let them be damn
tag team Champions. But I do think it's weird that
we have the Wyatt Six and their Tag Team Champions
has this big faction and now we have Dark State
as Tag Team Champions and they're a big faction, Like
we haven't to just tag teams. But it is what
it is. But I'm not mad with the results. I
just thought the match was thumbs down. Yeah, that's fair,

(10:05):
that's fair, all right, Lola Ice, which we both predicted.
I think we did pretty well in these predictions. Actually,
Lolavice the one A yeah almost no, none of us
did ash biology elegance, but we got Lola Lolavice defeats
Jada Parker and Klanie Jordan to become the new number
one contender for uh Jacy Jaye's title. Thumbs up or

(10:28):
thumbs down?

Speaker 2 (10:31):
I got thumbs up.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
I thought this match was probably my favorite match of
the night on the entire show this. You know, we
talked about chemistry before with Jordan, Grace and Blake Monroe.
I feel like all three of these women have chemistry
with one another, they all have history with one another.
Klonie Jordan was fantastic. I think lob Avice was fantastic.

(10:52):
The right person got the win. I'm excited to see
her versus Jacy Jane for the NXC Wins Championship now
and I think that's gonna be a good match. So yeah,
there's nothing wrong with this match whatsoever. It was a
little short, but I thought it was a good match.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Fully agree with you A banger thumbs up for sure.
Lola Ice winning was was the correct answer. And Jada
Parker and Kalanie Jordan like always bring it all. Three
of these women are super uber talented. Lola Ice is
kind of like the newer one like Kilanie Jordan and
they Jada Parker were like, you know, half a year
ago where they're good, but they're still trying to find themselves.
I think Littlevice is there, but this will be her

(11:30):
way and I think she's gonna have thrown j C Jane,
I truly do. I think they're done with jac Jan.
I think they're gonna give it to Lolavice. I don't
think they have Blake Monroe there yet and anybody else
with the soul rucas running with two titles, especially bringing
the speed title over. So yeah, I'm all for Lola
Ice winning this, and I thought she looked good. She
did you know, good match, not just like good personally,

(11:51):
you know, in the match, in the match, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Yeah, I thought all three women showcase what they can do.
And I think this match made all three women as well.
You know, you have Lola Ice now going for the
women's title. You had Clonie Jordan get give Blake Monroe
her first pinfall on the on the recent episode of
nxt S. So yeah, a lot, a lot of a
lot of talent coming up on the in the ranks
in nx C.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Mm hmmm true that alright. We had Team Canada defeat
Team America boom bum. Although it's still continuing, thumbs up
are thumbs down.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Oh man, I hate to do this to Ethan Page
and Chelsea. I gotta I gotta go, I gotta go
thumbs down. I just there was nothing about this match
that this match was a waste of time. That's all
this match was. This was this was the bathroom break
match right before the main event. This was the just
one of those matches that I really just did not
give a shit about. So yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna

(12:54):
give this match a really really big time thumbs down.
And I hate that because I love Chelsea Green and
I love Ethan Page. They been killing it, but and
I like their chemistry together. I like them as a
group together. I just didn't care about this match. This
match felt randomly thrown together. You could tell that it
was really just sloppy in the ring. It was just
not a good performance and not a I don't even

(13:17):
know what to call it, but it was just not
a good match.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
You're one hundred percent right, You're not wrong in any
of that assessment. I give it a big thumbs down
as well as probably my least favorite match of the night,
which is weird because I was looking forward to it.
Chelsea Green and Ethan Major are still killing it. We're
not gonna talk about it now. They killed it yeah
on NXT on Tuesday as well. And I love that
Ethan Page laid out Tavia on Heights and then put
the Canadian flag over him. It was super cool thing.

(13:41):
So if you's going to continue, Tavon and Tyra are
still young, they're new, they're green, you know, still trying
to figure themselves out. And Ethan Page and Chelsea Greenman.
Though Ethan Page is an NXC star, he's way above that,
so they are already established. But nonetheless, maybe next time,
but this is definitely a thumbs down.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
Yeah, for sure, for sure, all.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Right, Man of bed Time one Oba Femi to no
surprise defeat one Javon Evans. Javon loses again, even though
they had Jayvon pin him and then it was overturned
by a referee who was there, I don't know, but
either way, Oba wins. Thumbs up, thumbs down.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Thumbs up, very very fringe thumbs up, but a thumbs
up nonetheless. Oba Femy is him, Oba Femmy is. He's
got that dog, He's got a dog in him and
that man he every time he gets into the ring,
he's just incredible to watch. And you know, Javon Evans
has a bright future ahead of him, but they gotta
stop putting him in these title.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Matches just to have him lose.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
He takes loss after loss after loss, and every single
time he's competing for the title. But I really like
what they did at the end there when they had
Ricky Saints confront Oba Femi to close out the show.
I thought that was, you know, an interesting way to
close out heat Wave and kind of a good way
to end the show on a high note. In my
opinion because it was a very very lull show.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Like you said before, it just didn't have a lot
going for it.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
But I think it ended on a big time high
with Ricky Saints confronting Javon Evans.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
So I give this match a very very fringe thumbs up.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
I almost agree with everything you said, Jayvon and you know,
showed out but keeps losing. He's good, he needs to
work on his mic work, but he's still a future star.
But they have to have him stop losing. Oba Femi
is him and we'll talk about Ricky Saints on NXT.
But yeah, way good, good way to end it. Thumbs
all the way up, brother, thumbs all the way.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, all right. Now let's go back in time and
go to SmackDown you ready, smack Stell was cooking. Smack
Sell was cooking, and we are going to start with
Becky Lynches promo. She came out fooled everybody enters into Dublin.
She talks about how she wrestled here. They have never

(16:02):
had a recorded event in Dublin before. She had to
rustle in front of nobody, this and that and was
praising them and how they finally don't deserve it. She
turned instantly. She is killing this hill promo stuff. She
is just doing her damn thing. What did you think?
Did you like Becky's opening? Do you like that? You
had her do it and it worked. Becky was not

(16:23):
getting booed before. She is figuring her shit out and
she's doing it flawlessly.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
No, this was This was fantastic. This was a great
way to open the show. I like that the crowd,
you know, she turned that crowd against her magically just
by disagreeing with them, you know, like she was like,
we can finally have a show in Dublin. Wow, what
a great and they start cheering we deserve it, and
she's like, actually, you know what, No, you don't deserve it.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
You don't deserve a show in Dublin. And I like that.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
She she flipped the script on them and said that
you all should be, you know, praising me.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
You guys should all be cheering for me. I'm your hero.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
I'm the best thing that's ever come out of this place.
It was just a masterful, a promo master of turning
a crowd against you one on one, and it was
just beautiful to watch. My only complaint and it's just
it's a minor complaint, but a complaint nonetheless. But I
don't like when she mentions her hot American husband. I
get when, I get why she did it this time

(17:23):
because you know, she gets that heel heat and everything,
and you know, she's she's talking about how she had
to go to America to get the success and not
in Ireland.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
So I get, which, I get why she does it.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
But she's done it other times before where she's talked
about her husband, Like we all know who her husband is.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
We all know her husband is set Robins. But like,
I don't like that they that she.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
Mentions him, like if you're not going to be a
part of the vision, if you're not going to be
a part like if you're not going to be an
on screen couple.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
I really wish that they wouldn't. She wouldn't mention him.
He doesn't mention her, but I wish that he that
she wouldn't really mention him very much.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
But other than that, I love this promo. I think
it was great And I don't even mind the Seth
Browns reference in this regard because she was, you know,
again using it to get to garner that heel heat.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
But it happened a lot. But other than that, promo
was good.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Somebody's jealous of seth Rawlins, who was jealous? Jealous, jealous, jealous, jealous,
j sheould have to bring up her husband all the time.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
Gosh, I know, be Lynch, all right, yeah, I could
have been you wish hold me?

Speaker 1 (18:33):
All right? So by the way, everybody, just that, you know,
we usually prep these what we're gonna talk about beforehand.
We did not. Today. We forgot. So Ryan's gonna have
to talk about whatever the hell I want to talk about.
So next up for it? All right? There was a
promoted Our Truth match. We had one Alistair Black versus
one Alistair. Right, it's not Malachi, I got that right, okay?

(18:55):
Versus one Our Truth and Our Truth went to Dublin, Colorado.
I don't know some doublin. I didn't know there was
a doublet anywhere. He was not there. The return of
Damian Priest. They brought it out. Are you pissed? Are
you not? If you're a Dublin people like rue? Is
this funny? Does this work? Because he's back to his character?

(19:16):
Were you upset? We still got Damien Priest? But did
you hear that pop because it wasn't that loud. It
seemed to me like people were upset it boo them.
But they also didn't give them a huge welcome back
you haven't been here for a few months kind of reception.
Was it unfair to him? I just want you to
break it down for me. What do you think? Am
I wrong? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
No, You're one hundred percent right.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
I hated it, and I just I don't understand why
the WWE is what they're doing, because the week before
they tease again that we might be getting split personalities
with Ron Killings and Our Truth, like they Alkai Alakai
Jesus Alistair Black confronted him backstage and was.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Like, you know, don't forget who you really are or
something like.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
That, and Our Truth like dropped this the silly gimmick
and went back to his seriousness and was like okay,
Like it looked like we were finally like is he
going to continue this split thing? Like he's gonna be
silly one week and serious the next, and then this
week he's.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Like, sorry, y'all, I went to the wrong place. Ha ha. Sorry.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
It was just like, this is the stupidest thing ever,
I'm like, I love Our Truth, Like I wouldn't have
minded if they didn't do that the week before where
they like tease the match. They teased another serious run
for Our Truth and and all that jazz, and then
then then they go and do this, and that's what
just I didn't like it at all. I hated it

(20:46):
for Damian Priest because this should have been a moment
for him to get a huge pop. He's back now,
and I feel like the crowd really didn't care. And yeah,
I feel bad for Alistair Black too, because you know,
he's from Europe and he should have been getting a
big time ovation as well, and he didn't. And it
was just this whole segment just felt flat, and I
just I don't understand what WWE continues to do with

(21:08):
this art truth thing, like either commit to it or
drop it entirely and let him go back to being
serious our Truth, which I think they're doing now, but
at the time they tease the potential serious.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
If I came, yeah, it's it's okay to advertise a matchup.
It's not going to happen if it's in Chicago.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
La oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Even then, it kind of pissed, but you're across seas.
There's people there that only get this is the first
ever double it event. Yeah, and you there's probably people
who paid to see our truth. I don't think that's
that far fetched. And then he just doesn't appear, And
it's not like they just named it on SmackDown the
week before. They were advertising the shit before it was on,

(21:52):
Like if you were watching TV beforehand, like every promo
commercial it was on their Instagram that day. Are like,
you're literally promoted this knowing this is like an MMA
fight where the guy missed Wade or something like. This
is like you plan this. Just very very bizarre shit.
I do think it was unfair to Damien Priese because
no one gave a fuck he was there. They were like,

(22:13):
all right, not a golf clap, like cool, but he
should have got a bigger, bigger ovation for sure. Really
weird booking.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Yeah, very strange, very strange.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
All Right, Drew McIntire comes out again and cuts another promo.
There's no Cody there. We obviously found out. We can
just say it. Everyone said it was because he was
filming a movie. I think it's because he was doing
a thing called I don't know, having a baby. Congratulations
to the American Nightmare and his wife, Brandy. I got
a girl named Brandy. You got a Brandy. Props to

(22:47):
you all. Another baby. So happy from the two dudes.
But Drew McIntyre sitting there, obviously Cody's gonna be out
for a while, and all of a sudden, probably the
creepiest Randy ort never pops into Screw read r kaos them,
what's happening? Here? Are we waiting on Cody? We got
Drew beating Randy next. And then Cody talked to.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Me, Yeah, I think that's what they're doing.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
I think we're gonna get Drew versus Randy at Russell Palooza,
and then the winner of that will then get Cody Rhodes.
But from everything I've seen and everything I've read, it
doesn't sound like Cody Rohads is coming back anytime soon.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
I know that he is technically filming Street Fighter, but
he also just had a baby, so I don't really
know what to expect right now.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
But I gotta say, man, that promo that Drew McIntyre
cut was damn good. You know, the man is fantastic
in the ring. The first thing, the first thing he
said was Cody Roads.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Is a bitch.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
It was just a great line, got the crowd against
him immediately.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
It was just everything about it was was good.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
And then the Randy Orton thing though, that kind of
took me out of it because this whole time they've
been hyping up Cody versus Drew, Cody versus Drew, Cody
versus Drew, and now we're gonna pivot to Codys or
Randy versus Drew instead, which it's not gonna be a
bad match, don't get me wrong, it's gonna be a
good match.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
But I don't know.

Speaker 3 (24:13):
I don't understand why they went from Cody versus Drew
to Randy versus Drew instead, But I'm excited for it.
I thought the promo was good and shout out to
Cody Roads.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Yeah. Here's the thing. Just remember the Saint Drew McIntyre's
first rodeo of not having the person he's gonna face
with him. He did it with see Him Punk for
a freaking year and carried it alone. Carry this Cody,
he can carry it, and he'll face off against Brandy,
beat Randy good Step and Stone before he you know,

(24:44):
faces off against Cody and dethrones him. All right, let's
get into it. You ready for the next one, the
last one? You know where I'm going with this.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
Let's go.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
John Cena came out to cut a promo instantly gets
cut off by Logan Paul Paulka's the greatest promo in
his career, not even close. John Cena fires back, We
wouldn't talk about the one they had tonight on SmackDown.
These boys are cooking. Everybody was so pissed off that
they were facing each other. It was such a bad idea.

(25:15):
Am I off on this? Or is this gonna be
freaking legend Wait for it? Ryan? Wait, Darry, is it
gonna be legendary? Let's go?

Speaker 3 (25:26):
I yes, I thought this promo was great. I thought
this brought You know, normally, I'm not a fan of
John Cena just torching everybody on the microphone. You know,
he he ruined Austin theory before, he ruined Roman reigns before,
like he verbally obliterated Solo, Soca and the USO's before.
But I didn't mind it this time around, just because

(25:49):
and Logan Paul, to his credit, was standing there taking
it like a man. When when Johnson is bringing up
his legal stuff and he's bringing up, you know the
fact that that you're using us to buy a Pokemon
card and you're using us for the cloud and you're
filming videos on vine with your brother when I'm in
this ring kicking out like it was.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
It was just I didn't mind it so much.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
And even Logan Paul just his his reactions to it all,
like off the mic was just, oh my god, you're.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Really gonna do that. What does that have to do
with anything? Like, oh my god. Like I thought he
handled it beautifully.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
I thought it was a great showcase from two of
the WWE's best. And I was not looking forward to
this match. I was not looking forward to this match
one bit, And now I can't wait for this match
at Clash. At Clash in Paris, I think it's going
to be great. I'm not pissed that he's facing Logan Paul.
I actually think I mean, they have a history. They
team together at Money in the Bank just a couple

(26:41):
of months ago, and now they're feuding against each other.
You know, the only question is what does brock Lesner do?
Does he interfere and cost Johnsen at the match? And
Logan that's how Logan Paul.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Gets win, Let's get there or addictions.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Yeah, yeah, but I liked it. I thought the promo
was good. I thought Logan Paul brought it. I thought
John Cena brought it. And yeah, like I said, I'm
really looking forward to this match at Clashing Pairs now
more so than ever.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, I fully agree, and Logan just bright. He was
tearing them up and everything he was saying was real.
He was like popping the Drew MacIntyre whereas he's like,
you know, you guys are saying I'm fake. You guys
are saying this guy gives you five moves and you
I literally put my life on the line. He's just
going around and doing touring and not want to be here.
I'm here every single day. You guys say I'm not
a real wrestler. I've been doing this for three years now,

(27:35):
four that's that's more than half the roster. He was
just like bringing it. It was awesome, and then John
let him cook. John has finally learned not to interrupt,
not to bury a guy. He's finally not doing that.
It only took him to the end of his career
and he cut a good promo. He dug deep. But
it wasn't to bury him. He didn't find his flaws.
He didn't talk about this or anything that. He just

(27:57):
delivered a good promo. Win at him. Fantastic stuff, man,
fantastic stuff.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yeah. No, I thought it was great. I think uh yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
And like you said, the fact that it took John
Cena all this time, like he didn't. Usually, when somebody's
cooking on John Cena, he's like smirking halfway through, he
was like laughing at off. He's no selling it. This time,
he was really stoic throughout and let Logan Paul say
his part, and then he said his part, and that's
exactly what a wrestling promo should be.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah. Maybe because he knows Logan Paul can really kick
his ass, so maybe he's like, uh anyway, all right, yeah,
he didn't do that shit the brock Lesner either. All Right,
let's get into it. It's time from It's time for
Monday Night rab bebe because we like it raw, Oh baby,
we like it raw. So let's do it. And we're
gonna go back to someone we talked about on SmackDown
Your Girl that you wish you had, that you were

(28:46):
so jealous of did double duty. She cut another promo,
this time against Nicky Bella. Last time her and Nicki
Bella were in the ring, she embarrassed Nicky Bella, what
did you think this time? Do you think they a
little bit more even a little bit more fun? What
say you? Are you hyped about this? I?

Speaker 2 (29:04):
I all three all of the above. I think it's
a lot. It was a lot more even this time around.
It was a lot more fun. She apparently the w
w E is in some hot water.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
She really pissed off one of the line, the Osborne
Osbourne daughter because of the Ozzie line about how you
know he died, you know he was the only good
thing that came out of Birmingham, UK, and it was just, yeah,
it was fantastic, a fantastic line. I don't understand why
there's so much outrange about it. She's a heel playing

(29:34):
a heel, like you know, that's what they do. But
apparently the w w E might have to offer an
apology and like all this, there's all kinds of stuff
going on in the dirt sheets about that.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
But I love this man.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
I think I think Nicky Bella brought it. I think
Becky Lynch brought it. This was Becky Lynch carried w
w E this week, like I'm just gonna throw that
out there. She carried her promos were great. She's doing
the best work of her career. I want her to
hold onto the icy title forever until somebody comes up
that's credible, that can beat her. She needs to hang
on to this bell as long as she cant word.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
I agree. Fantastic stuff from her and Nikki Bella brought it.
I like that she snagged the bell held it up
in the air showing that she's not gonna win it
on Sunday. It was fantastic stuff. I loved it. And
let's talk about that line. The thing is, I get
Kelly Osborne. It's her father and this and that, But
Ozzie's a Hall of Famer. We bring up things in
WWE for other WWE people. It wasn't offensive. It was

(30:31):
literally praise. If I died and somebody said, the only
good thing that happened in this city was that, you
know that guy dying, That was the only good thing
you guys had. I would take that as a freaking
tell my kids thank you. Some of the things I
was the only good thing in this whole damn town
that when I died, I took it with me like
that was. It's not like she like did a dirty line.
I have no I think she that Kelly Osborne wasn't

(30:51):
watching it her, that it was brought up and just
tweeted it out. And now we're in what the kids say, woke,
so everybody has to get upset with each other. But
I didn't think it was offensive at all. That it
was perfect well delivered. She had a whole bunch of
good lines. It is what it is, man, She's the Hill,
she's from here, grow up. But nonetheless, fantastic stuff, and
I'm super I think this match has me neither. I
think this match has the chance to steal the show.

(31:12):
I'm just saying it right now. Yeah, you heard me,
Nikki Bella Becky Lynch could steal the show. I'm telling
you right now, Yes, sir, all right, let's get into
something we haven't talked about a lot on here. This
is her third one. I believe Bailey. Bailey has been
cutting promos and she has a split personality, kind of

(31:34):
she's unsure of herself. She's kind of talking to herself.
It's very white six and away kind of it's very
unsure where she has her good person telling her to
hug and this is that, and her bad person telling
her that she's getting used and the WW is not
using her right. I feel like every single one, even
though they've been very similar, have been done amazing. I

(31:55):
think it's phenomenal that Bailey not only is getting airtime,
but getting a star finally the respect that she deserves.
Because Bailey is top ten all time, you can't fight
me on it, and she just doesn't get the respect
she deserves. She finally is. I'm telling you, I still
think Carrie and Cross is going to control her. It
just is too close to Carrie and Cross to not

(32:18):
be carri and Cross doing it. But nonetheless, what say you?
Are you digging these? Do you want to see her
wrestle or are you just liking this and you want
her to keep cutting these eerie promos where she's conflicted
with herself? What say you? Because I'm a enjoy and
the shit out of them.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Yeah, no, I'm digging this, man like. It's adding some
elements and some depth to the Bailey character. It's giving
me a reason to tune in to Bailey it's making
me care about Bailey for something that WWE has done
a piss poor job of over the last couple of years,
is making me care about Bailey.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
You know, I've always cared about Bailey.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
I always love Bailey, but they haven't done the best
of job of making you care about her. But I
think they've done their thing this week. These promos dig
and I with the carrying stuff, like, I feel he
filled out a little bit. I feel like his popularity

(33:12):
had like I fit out for sure, with them being
in Europe, with those vocal crowds and everything that we
would have heard we want cross chance, we would have heard,
you know, people talking about carrying cross. There would have
been carrying across, posters in the in the stands and everything,
and I feel like we haven't really gotten that. And
I know he showed up recently in GCW, which I
guess is not part of the not part.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
Of the WUF, Like.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
I don't know, maybe yeah, maybe yeah, but it just
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
It just feels like the hype around carrying cross has
has died down. So I'm hoping I'm wrong, but it
just that's kind of how it feels. But either way,
I'm loving what they're doing with Bailey, and I like
your idea of carrying cross. It does feel like a
very carrying cross type thing. It also feels like a
Wyat six type and there's some tie in there. But yeah,

(34:04):
so so either way, I wouldn't be I wouldn't be
mad at it.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
I mean, if I was to name the safest place
for him to go to where I do feel like
it's a work and that he is gonna come back,
it's gc freaking w so for people to say that
they're wild for that, that's literally like that. Yeah, okay,
like maccrducll. Yeah, let's stop, Hie, another question for you,
and I'm just gonna throw it out there. We find
have found out who's gonna replace Naomi for her title.

(34:30):
As predicted, Stephanie Vakaer will be one of them, but
we didn't find out who the next one was, So
let's hear it. Unless you have this for true or false,
But Stephanie I Fakaire is gonna challenge for someone who
wish you gonna It's gonna be someone obvious because I
feel like there's nobody on raw right now who is
ready for the number one everyone's in a thing or

(34:50):
not ready. Is he gonna be someone from the outside
SmackDown or is it gonna be somebody returning who isn't
there or an nxtier who is going to have it?
And as Stephanie Butcaire going to win.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
The only thing I can think of that makes any
sort of sense whatsoever, because Adam Pierce was adamant like
it can't it had. It's not going to be at Paris,
Like you get your shot, but it's not going to
be at Paris. I have some things that I have
to work out. If it was anybody else on the
raw roster, he could just make the match and make
it official. So that tells me it's either somebody debuting,
somebody's being called up, or somebody is returning. So I'm

(35:31):
leaning more towards the latter. I think it might be
a Live Morgan return. I really hope it is, and
Live Morgan gets her title back. So yes, I don't
see Stephanie Vacare winning. I see Live Morgan coming back,
beating Stephanie Vacaire and then continuing the tension and the
judgment day is you know they're.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
The tag team champions. Dom is the the.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
IC champion and now Live has the world title again.
But there's still a lot of tension because of Rock
Sane Perez, because of Braquel Rodriguez.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
And everything going on there, and the fact that she
did it with that, Like where was the judgment day
to help her? Why does she have to do it
on her own? Where have they been this whole time?
Why is nobody reached out so I could see. I
think that's what they're gonna do. I think it's a
Live Morgan return.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
Here's the thing. The way he did it, it sounded
like he had to negotiate something. That's what makes you
think it's not Lived because lives on raw. She can
just show up. So him saying like I need more
time is different than him saying I gotta work some
things out, because I think that's how he worded it,
like he needed to finagle it. That's why I think
it's one Bianca Belair. I think he has to get
somebody over. I know everyone's saying, well she's still heard,

(36:40):
and okay, stop listening to how long people's true. We
don't know shit. None of us people like Live. Everyone
says she's out, so we don't know. It could be
lived beyond. It could be anyone. Injuries are so stop stop,
let's stop with how long we pretend like we know
these people or were doctors. So I think it's gonna
be Beyonca only because Beyonca winning and holding the belt

(37:02):
for nine months and Naomi coming back. That's like a
built in money maker right there, that's like what we want.
It makes sense. I think Naomi is gonna face Bianca
eventually anyway, I just think that makes more sense. But
trust me, I wouldn't be surprised with Live Bianca, Trish
freaking Stratus, anybody. I mean, I would not be surprised

(37:22):
by any of them. So it is what it is.
But nonetheless, see yeah good.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
I could see somebody from TNA coming and getting like and.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
That's Adam Pearce has to work out.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
I could h like Masha Slamovich or somebody like that.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
I could see her get getting a title shot because
she's not doing.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Anything right now.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
My thing is, I'm just like seventy percent sure that
it cares losing, So I feel like it has to
be somebody bigger than her. So I don't know, I
just I have a feeling she's not winning. I just
I don't know why. Yeah, I just have a feeling.
Maybe not. Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
I like I like your idea of Bianca Bella.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
That would add some attention to her in Naomi, you
can get Jay back involved.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
There's yeah, I like that idea a lot.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
All right, all right, let's send it.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
My title warm. That's what I'm just saying. Naomi did
say that, Yeah, they keep it bet warm. So yeah,
I'm bringing up.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
I agree, I agree. All right. Roman reigns and Bronson
read went at it again. They kind of rumbled a
little bit, and then Roman lays Brunson read out in
the back, what say you did? Bronson bring it? He
let Paul talk and then he talked. Uh. His shirt
was a flipping banger, tribal thief with the shoes on it.

(38:43):
I mean it is money. He is money. We'll get
into predictions later, but Roman, Bronson, Bronson don't seem outmatch here.
He seems like he belongs. The Samoan line was hilarious.
This guy Samoan. I loved it, all good stuff, and
I like Roman getting a cheap shot. Since the bigger guy,
Roman can't just go to him face to face. He's
a beast, got to catch him off guard, Boom, Superman

(39:06):
punch lays him out. I loved it all. I'll watch
these two go out it all day with a mix
of Paul Hayman any day of the week. What say you?

Speaker 3 (39:16):
I thought Paul Hayman was the highlight of that promo.
I thought he Paul singing Bronson Reed's name. When Yeah, when,
when when everyone's saying Roman like it was good stuff.
Romans facial expressions continue to get better and better. I
thought this was the highlight of Monday Night Raw. This

(39:37):
was the best we've seen Roman reign since his baby
face turned. The crowd was into him. He got to
cut a promo, We got to see him do something backstage.
He gave Jay Usso a pep talk and was like, hey,
you know, stop trusting people, and the least last person
you can trust to see him pump, like do your thing, man,
Like you've been world champion before, you've been Intercontinental Champion before,
you're one of the You're you're one of the USO's

(39:58):
legendary tax team. Like, you're you're one of the best.
Like you don't you don't need to help other people,
And so I think that planting some seeds into jay
Uso to do what he did as well to Superkick
La Night and Superkick CM Punk as the show goes
off the air. So Roman Rains was planted all over
Monday Night Raw, and I loved every.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
Second of it.

Speaker 3 (40:18):
I thought this was the best we've seen Roman Rains
since his babyface turned in twenty twenty four.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
For reals. And if you ain't excited for this match,
you drinking crazy jews. This match is gonna be banging,
but book book book banging, yes, sir, all right, let's
get into some NXT. You ready, Yeah, you ready? We're
a little delayed. Sorry, all right, NXT there we are.
All right, let's get into it. Number number one. I'm

(40:48):
gonna switch up the game we're gonna I wanted to
talk about that awful, awful blindfold match, but why do
we want negativity. Let's talk about something a little bit
more exciting, something more up your speed. So the Speed
Championships are coming to one n x T. So Ruca

(41:08):
was there. The men's champion was nowhere to be seen.
I guess El Grande Americano was out touring Mexico and
could not be here for that day. They didn't even
mention him at all, but they said both speed champions
are showing up to NXT. Does this mean it was
a success? And so they were over it on YouTube
and they wanted to get paid for it or are

(41:29):
they just trying to spice up NXT a little bit.
It was kind of very three zero five ish, where
the three h five title like had its own show
and then it kind of came over to like I
forgot what it was SmackDown, I believe, and then it
kind of left again and we're just trying to get
eyeballs on it to bring it back to YouTube. Is
this a forever thing? Do you like it? So? Ruca
that has two titles? What say you?

Speaker 2 (41:51):
I don't like this at all.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
I think there's already too many championships and there's too
many titles in WWE. We just introduced new especially in NXC.
We just have the new Women's North American Championship added,
and now we're adding two more like speed titles and
the winner has to get the belt in under three minutes.
It's just I mean, yeah, I guess it speeds up,

(42:15):
speeds up matches for lack of a better term, in NXC,
so not everything is going to be a long fifteen minute,
twenty minute match like usual, so it kind of spices
things up, I guess, But I just I don't.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
I didn't care.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
About it when it was on YouTube. Wwe never hyped
it up. They never talked about it, They never showed
the wrestlers, never brought their titles to the ring. They
never you know, when they were on Raw, they never
brought their belts out. They like, no, they didn't care
about it then, so why should we care about it
now just because it's on NXT.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
I don't like this idea.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
I think it's going to fizzle out or maybe become
something else within the NXT brand.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
But I just I don't. I don't care for this
at all.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
Yeah all right, well said, well, yeah, I didn't even
know how Grande Americano was the champion until they showed
a pick him and I was like, oh, like that
guy's on TV every week talking to Dominic Mysterio can't
throw the belt around his waist. Weird. Yeah, so ruk
it just started now because she's like, oh, we're defending
it now, so I'm wearing it.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Yeah, it's so dumb. I don't get it. I don't
like Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
All right, let's get into something. Hopefully you do like
Ricky Saints is now your new number one contender. He'd
be your favorite promost one Josh Briggs, who was fumbling
all over his freaking words this week again we ha
a jinx that dude. But anyway, Ricky starts the number
one contender and I smell something, Ryan, before you talk,

(43:39):
I what's that? Oh? I smell a new champion? My friend?
Tell me I'm wrong. Tell me I'm wrong.

Speaker 3 (43:49):
I don't think you are, but I will say that
until somebody beats op, I'll believe it when I see it,
because I think Obafemi is that guy. I think Obam
is the best thing n X he has. He's the best,
probably gonna he should go down as one of the
best champions that they've ever had. And and until somebody, uh,
until somebody beats him.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
I have a hard time believing that anybody can beat him.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
But I did like this promo from Ricky Saints. I
thought this was a great showing for him. The only
thing I didn't like about it though, was you know,
he comes out and he cuts the promo and then
he gets interrupted by Josh Briggs and then Ava comes
out and says, okay, well you both have legitimate gripes
to be number one contender.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
So here's what.

Speaker 3 (44:34):
Here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna have a number
one contenders match here tonight. On in it like she
has no personality. But also, why did you end NXC
heat Wave with Ricky Saints staring down over femy If
you just have to make him earn the championship opportunity
against over fem like it would have. I would have

(44:56):
been fine with what they did this Tuesday if they
hadn't have ended he Wave with Ricky Saints staring him down.
Maybe don't do that. I know you had to end
it with something, but maybe you don't do or you
don't have him earned the title shot, like I feel
like he should have already been given the title shot.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
But the fact that he had to then go what
if he had lost?

Speaker 3 (45:15):
You know, then you would have had heat Wave of
the ending the heat Wave all for nothing like that
didn't it didn't make any sense. The flow was off
that that didn't make any sense whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
No, that that was very weird, Like when the match happened.
I was like, yeah, Joss Briggs is gonna win. They
just had a stare down, like why would Josh Briggs wave? Yeah,
it was really a random like if you're gonna make
a run it, then they shouldn't have faced off. They
should have faced up at the end like they did.
But n XT not a heat wave. But yeah, but nonetheless,
Ricky Saints is here. He is that dude, and he
you can say, you have to believe it. You are

(45:46):
gonna believe it when you see it very very soon.
Just remember Obah Femmi was pinned by jay Von Evans Boo.
So yeah, whether you or like it or not, Ricky
Saints ain't gonna play around. He's gonna beIN his ass.
Oba's ready to move on to RS SmackDown. He's too
good for XT. Now Ricky Saint's time to shine. Let's
talk about it. It's happening, It's happening.

Speaker 3 (46:10):
Yeah, But I also didn't like the dark state being added.

Speaker 2 (46:13):
I didn't care for that.

Speaker 3 (46:14):
Oh, I feel like right kind of we kind of
got lost and yeah, like it was great when Oba
and Ricky Saints were promoing back and forth and they
were staring each other down, but then the Dark State
comes out and I feel like they completely ruined it.
And then Hank and Tank came out, and now it's like, okay,
we're getting a four on four Like I guarantee you
we're gonna get an eight man tag sometime next week

(46:35):
on NXC with Saints and Ricky Saints and Oba fam Me,
Hank and Tank against the Dark State.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
I guarantee it.

Speaker 1 (46:41):
They announced it. They announced it. Remember they said they
wanted their tag team title matches and.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
She said, well no I didn't.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah they Hank and Tank said they wanted
Dark State and then she said, well dark Steak wants
you too, but first she wants you all four of them,
so you need two tag team partners. Then you'll earn
your attack team titil match. Yeah so yes, sir, So
it's happening next week.

Speaker 2 (47:06):
Then they'll get.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Yeah, yes, sir, but wait to call that you were thinking,
just like A that's good. All right, let's break it down.
That was our week end review. Nonetheless, it was still
a really good week. I liked T Wave a little bit.
They did their best, but SmackDown Raw was good as always,
NXC was good. I'm excited for Clash in Paris. And
speaking of Clash in Paris, Ryan, I think you have

(47:31):
a little song to hit for us to get started, buddy,
because it's prediction time, Babe. Let's get into it.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
That's right. Let me get the.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Ready ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 4 (47:44):
There is before it never happens a prediction leaning closed
saying nose listen to stay up, but to point it
out quick lee, all the things that you didn't see.
He's getting cold, like plays in Atlanta scrimmage.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
You can take it to the bate. Dudes.

Speaker 4 (48:01):
They've been seeing what's coming for a good man in
his prediction time.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
Yeah, let's get it. So it's Clash in Paris prediction time.
And Ryan tries his best to make the card match
as is, and he's starting with Roman versus Bronson, which
means John Cena will be like in the middle of
the they're gonna put John Cena like second or so okay, okay,

(48:28):
all right, I I I let's do it because eight
man event and all right, let's get into it. First
match up, we got one OTC the tribal chief versus
one tribal thief Roman reigns Bronson Reid who do you
got Ryan?

Speaker 2 (48:47):
This one's hard, but I'm i gotta give it to Bronxon.
I'm going Bronson Reid. I think he.

Speaker 3 (48:53):
Roman doesn't need as much as I love Roman Reigns,
and I could see him. I could see two scenarios happen.
I either see Reed winning and you know which I
think is the right outcome. But I also could see
a situation where Roman Reigns somehow hits the victory, but
after the match, the vision beats down Roman and Bronson
Reed does like fifteen Tsunamis to Roman Reigns or something

(49:16):
like that, making him look strong even in defeat. So
I could see that scenario as well. But I'm gonna
go with Bronson Reed getting the win and then doing
fifteen Tsunamis afterwards to really to write off Roman Reigns
off of TV because you know he ain't gonna be
He's not gonna be back anytime soon, and bill Bronson
Reid up as a continue. They need to build him

(49:37):
up as a star with him wrestling one of the
greatest of all time. So Bronson Reed gets the win here.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
Yes, sir, the tribal thief did not just make that
shirt for Roman to take his shoes back. Already, Bronson
Reed is going to win. He's going to dominate him.
He's gonna give him seven to ten tsunamis, and he's
gonna send Roman Rains the land to go shoot some
street fighter movie until Roman comes back and then gets

(50:06):
revenge once Bronson Reid is established, Bronson read ain't no punk.
He's sick of bron breaker and taking a spotlight. He
is going to have the biggest win in his career.
And I'm gonna say it right now. Ever, I don't
care if Bronson win. Reid wins the title, and this
will be his biggest win ever, defeating the greatest wrestler
of our generation cleanly. It's happening the end. Let's go saying.

Speaker 3 (50:31):
This is exactly how he's been putting a lot over
this year. Yep, he's been taking pinfall losses. He's been
losing a lot. So I think this is an opportunity
to really build a Bronson Reed.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Yes, sir, all right, who does it think going up next?
All right? Good call? We got me versus you, Shamus
versus Ruth's not not us to be like it. I
thought I thought you posted us for a second I
thought you posted us weird. We got Seamus versus Rusef
in a Dutch Oh, Donnie Brooke, there you go. Whatever

(51:08):
the hell it is, having some kind of Irish themed match.
What say you? Who's gonna win? Mh, you or me?

Speaker 3 (51:15):
It's gotta be Russov, It's gotta be It's gonna be you.
As russ has to win. Just brought him back to
the w WE. You haven't done anything with him, and
he's like, this is his first pl he's been back
since WrestleMania and this is his first.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
Ple on in the WWE.

Speaker 3 (51:31):
So he's got to win. He's got to get the win.
I could see Seamus getting the win just because he
is from your episode as rosp So. I don't know,
but I think Russoph has to win. He has to
win in dominant fashion.

Speaker 1 (51:46):
I fully agree with you. Rusef wins. Seamus doesn't need
wins anymore. He's just here for the fun. Ruseph is
that dude. They he's new, trying to push him. Rusef
wins and Seamus is themed match, Yes, sir, and.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
Then we move on from this because I'm tired of this.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
I am too. Then yeah, let's We're done, all right,
just announce on SmackDown. So if you haven't caught it yet,
this is a spoiler. But we have the Wyatt Six
defending their titles against the Street Profits.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
Are the Street prophets?

Speaker 1 (52:16):
Brothers? Are they even family? Stare at each other for
fifteen seconds and segment who do you got? Winning?

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (52:25):
The Wyatt Six are winning. There's something going on with
montes Ford. He's been teasing a more we talk about
Bailey and her chromos lately, you know, montes Ford has
been teasing a little bit more of a serious character,
a little bit more of a singles character, a character
that you know, so I could see him maybe turning
on Dawkins or walking out on Dawkins, or they lose,

(52:49):
and this is the straw that breaks the camel's back
and this is what makes montes Ford become a single star.
But either way, the Wyatt Six are gonna retain. And
I could not care less about the White Six. So
either way they're going to retain, and you know whatever.

Speaker 1 (53:07):
Yeah, I feel the same way White Six win. Whatever.
Did you see bo Dallas cut the most Ray Wyatt
promo and he's like ainting way, He's like I'm like,
oh my god, this guy's gonna like literally try to
become his brother. It's wild, very like be yourself, but
be bray white. You don't have to be bray white.
But nonetheless, two and a half years ago ish, when

(53:28):
I started tiktoking and social media, I talked about how
the Street Profits were gonna break up, and it never happened.
And I thought two and a half years ago, montes
Sport was ready. He's more than ready. Now this guy
has ic US title written all the f over him.
I think they need to break up. The tag team
division is what it is. If they're in it or not,
it's gonna be what it is. Might as well just

(53:51):
give this man his chance, let him go solo. I
don't know how Dawkins will do, But nonetheless, montes Sport
is a flippant star. Let him do his damn thing.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
Let him pair up with the MANK can go.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Yeah, you know, yeah for sure, for sure, but yeah,
White six win. All right, we got one babyface John
Cena cutting his promos again. You can realize that the
hell were you thinking turning him? Hell even he admitted
it suck. He came up recently and said it was
awful that I sucked at it. It was awful. I
should have never done it. He is one hundred percent right,

(54:22):
and I still am waiting for all those apologies from
all you idiots on TikTok who attacked me ruthlessly every
single time I said it sucked and told me I
was a moron, his promos, everything. But he's going up
against Logan Paul. They've been cooking. They cooked a night
on SmackDown. What say you? Who is winning this match?

Speaker 3 (54:41):
So on one hand, I feel like John Cena has
to win, But on the other hand, I think Logan
Paul should win because I think you know, everyone's talking about,
oh John Cena's retirement tour. He can't lose in his
retirement tour. Why not he should lose. He should be
putting over the next generation of talent. Logan Paul's gonna
be around whe people like it or not. He's gonna

(55:01):
be around for the next ten to fifteen years in
the WWE. It is what it is, he's good at it,
He's found a place for him, and you know, we
can everyone can get over it. So I'm gonna go
I'm gonna make a bold prediction that Logan Paul will
beat John Cena and it'll be a huge victory for him,
and uh, you know, one of the few people because

(55:22):
Cody Roase is the other one that can say that
they've beaten John Cena during his retirement tour.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
All right, boom boam but boom yeah, I see, I see.

Speaker 1 (55:36):
The man who is immune to the law is going
to come back. If you don't remember one, Nick Aldis
was like, hey man, it's me Nick out of this
and John Cena, I have something to tell you about
one brock Lesna and then Logan Paul clocked him and
we never heard about it again. Brock Lesser is gonna
be a clash in Paris. Brock Lesser is gonna cost
you on seat of the match. Logan Paul's gonna win

(55:59):
the end. That's how it's gonna work. And we got
at Russell Palooza.

Speaker 3 (56:06):
Yeah, I could also see where if Logan Paul wins
and then or John Tina wins and he comes out
after the fact, I don't know, or yeah, like he
did at SUMMERSLAMI likes to repeat ending, so I can
see that.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
But I think I do think brock Western makes his appearance.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
Yeah, Logan's gotta win, all right, and how he predicted. Oh,
Becky Lynch versus Nicky Bella, the match that I will
be watching alone. Who do you got winning? Let's hear it.

Speaker 3 (56:39):
As much as I love what Nicky Bella has been
doing lately, it's Becky Lynch all day, every day, twice
on Sunday. She is going to retain her icy title
and brain of dominance that she's on. She's on having
the best run of her entire career, and it's gonna continue.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
After clashing Paris, Becky wins, not even close. Nikki Bella
thinks for coming, but you're getting better. You're getting better
on the mic. You're gonna have a great match. I
do think this was still a show and she will
move on and continue to wrestle. She's amazing it. Just
say her time. Becky Lynch all day every day, Yes, sir,
all right. The main event seth Rowlins is defending his

(57:19):
title in a four way because it's not gay when
it's in a four way versus l A Knight, CM
Punk and one Jay Uso. Who's winning, Who's taking the pin?
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
Seth Rollins retains and l A Knight takes the pin.
I think that's now they're gonna do it. I was
gonna say, I was gonna say Jay Huso takes the pin,
but then Roman Reigns had to give him a pep
talk this week, and jay Uso finally came to his
senses and you know, stopped helping seem Punk, stopped helping
l A Knight. So now I think, like, Okay, maybe
he's not there to take the pin anymore. But either way,

(57:55):
Seth Rollins is retaining, and I think it's gonna it's
not gonna be Punk that takes the pin, and I
don't think it's gonna Beja any So process of elimination
leaves it to one Los Angeles Night. Maybe it's bron
Breaker that cost him, maybe Seth Rollins cheat somehow, but yeah,
it's going to be Seth Rolins retaining in La Knight
taking the pin. And then Bronson, Reid and bron Breaker

(58:16):
come out and they celebrate their victorious night with Bronson
Reid beating Roman at the beginning of the show and
Seth Rollins retaining his title to close out the show.

Speaker 1 (58:27):
Yes, sir, I have it, jay Uso taking the pin.
I think Jay Uso stood tall when and I were
off for a reason because he needed it, because he's
taken this l I think Seampunk in La Knight will
handle themselves somehow, whether they leave brawling, whether they knock
each other out. Nonetheless, their little feud is going to
be moving forward. It's going to be interrupted by that fact.
Somebody Bron Bronson, probably Broun Breaker because he has nothing

(58:50):
to do well somehow, then trip up Jay Uso. Seth
will stomp get the win. Jay will do his I
got you Romans inspired me, but he'll get cheated out.
Maybe we'll move on to Jay versus Brown Breaker moving
forward as well. But nonetheless, it's is zero. I guess
I see all these people like La and I and
see them punk are gonna win the titles, And I'm like,
are you stupid? You think they just gave all the

(59:11):
vision is on every second Seth just won the title.
They're taking it off them. You Yeah, tell me you
haven't watched wrestling without telling me. Seth wins the end.

Speaker 3 (59:20):
Yeah, for sure, for sure, And I think this is
gonna be a good match. But yes, he is definitely winning.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
Yes, sir, all right, there's our praditions. Take it to
the bank. We agreed on every single one of them,
which means your money is in go to DraftKings. Bet
it up. They ain't sponsoring us, they should, but bet
it up. Take that to the bank. It is time
for our weekly segment. We're gonna close out with our
LVD and MVD of the week, our least value, most
valuable dude or do that. It's not who we hate,
It's not nothing like that. It's just whoever we thought

(59:47):
was the best or worst booked. As always, Ryan, you
get to start off, who is your LVD of the
week of August twenty second, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (59:58):
Yeah, this one, this one's hard, but I'm I'm gonna
give it to Solo Soca only because he took another.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
He took an he continues to lose.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
He's he's being he's You had him take the title
off of Jacob Fatu and now you know he's losing
week after week after week to Sammy's Zay.

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
He's I don't know, I'm just not I'm not feeling
what they're doing with with Jacob or with Solo Soka
at the moment.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
And you know he's got the MFT guys with them,
but they're not doing really doing anything. Like he's great
on the microphone, he's got all. He's showing a lot
more personality. I like that he confronted Jimmy Uzzo on
SmackDown about you know, you know uncles, his new baby's
favorite uncle, and like that was a great segment.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
I like that That's how they introduced Sammy's ain.

Speaker 3 (01:00:49):
But he keeps losing the Sammy and I'm just I
don't understand, like, what, like, what's the point of building
solo up if you just continue to lose to Sami's ay,
So I'm gonna I gotta give it to so unfortunately well.

Speaker 1 (01:01:04):
Said, well deserved, well deserved. I'm going a different round.
I'm giving it to one Lexus King. This man on
the next had a blindfold match versus a deaf wrestler.
So think about that. He's deaf, which means he can't hear.
Now he's blinded, which means he literally can't see. He
can't hear or see, and Lexus King not only struggled

(01:01:27):
to win the match, but had to peek and cheat
to defeat a blind deaf wrestler. Make it make sense,
my LV and the fact that he beat a deaf
blind wrestler. You take an L for that, sir. What
are you doing LVD all day every day? That match

(01:01:47):
was atrocious. I don't know what the hell they're doing.
He's deaf, you don't get.

Speaker 3 (01:01:57):
Yeah, exactly, and he representing JF he was like better
than you and you know it.

Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
Like I was just like, yeah, like what are you
guys doing? Like this is this is dumb?

Speaker 3 (01:02:05):
Like this is the probably the worst thing I've seen
on wrestling in quite a while.

Speaker 1 (01:02:09):
It was awful that he needs a Mercedes Monday where
he needs to disappear and refresh and come back as
Brian Kilman. Junr Alixe is king.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
Is absolutely for me. That's awful, not at all all.

Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
Right, let's send on a positive MVD for the week.
Who do you got?

Speaker 3 (01:02:25):
It's none other than Becky lynch All hands down, she
carried SmackDown with the one of the best promos I've heard.
One of my favorite promos of the year so far,
was how she got that crowd to turn against her
and how she's from Ireland and she got the you know,
the hometown pop when she first came out, just to
get them to absolutely boo her and destroy. It was

(01:02:45):
fantastic showing on the mic. And then she topped that
off with an even better promo on Monday Night Raw
where she offended the Osbourne daughter. She you know, offended
Nikki Bella. She called Nicki Bella a bit. It was
just all kinds of good stuff in these lines, great lines,
in these promos.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
Becky Lynch is on the run of.

Speaker 3 (01:03:04):
Her life right now in WWE, probably one of the
best runs of probably the best run of her entire
WWE career.

Speaker 2 (01:03:10):
She is killing it. This heeled thing is working it.
She's thriving.

Speaker 3 (01:03:14):
She's been a fantastic Women's Icy champion compared to the
US champion, the Women's US champion who I had.

Speaker 2 (01:03:21):
To look up who it was, and it's Julia. Becky
Lynch's thriving right now.

Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
And I don't understand what's going on on the smacking side,
but Becky.

Speaker 2 (01:03:29):
Lynch is killing it.

Speaker 3 (01:03:30):
She is the I'm excited for her match at Clashing Paris.
I think that I have no doubt that match is
going to steal the show. But yeah, Becky Lynch hands
down MVD of the Week.

Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
I agree with you. The ed and what happened to Julia?
How are you going to bring her up? Give her
a title that? Never have her wrestle? What the fudger
are we doing over here?

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
I don't know. I don't get it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
I don't agree with all this nonzas of Triple H
camp book, but some of his stuff is just really off. Yeah.
Becky Lynch, by far, she was on BO shows, cut
two great promos on BO shows, carrying a secondary title,
which no one has done since Gunther. She is doing thing.
She deserves it MVD all the way, easy pick, easy
pick for she's the.

Speaker 3 (01:04:04):
Only woman defending a title on her on the pl
You don't have the Women's champion on there, you don't
have no women's World champion on there. You have the
Women's Icy Champion by design.

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
Because Becky Lynch is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Killing She her, she her, all right? That was it.
